Shennong Dao Master

"Shriek!"

The Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird, surrounded by seven-colored rainbow light, rushed out of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.

As soon as it exited, the rainbow light suddenly collapsed, as if an invisible force was suppressing its actions.

"My fate is determined by me, not by the heavens!"

The Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird let out a strange cry, the rainbow light intensified, forming a defense shield, and disappeared outside the door in an instant.

"Whew~"

Zhao Xing sat cross-legged, waiting inside the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.

"I wonder if that foolish bird will succeed."

"I hope there are still some treasures here targeting the priests." Zhao Xing thought to himself.

Although he's bought plenty of consumable treasures in the Military Realm,

it's not fully secure. What he can buy, others might be able to as well.

His main concern is high-grade priests!

Such formidable individuals surely won't lack treasures.

Hence, he holds great expectations for this Dream Palace.

"There must be higher-order Soul Armor."

"The rest is uncertain."

Zhao Xing quietly waited.

...

This waiting was much longer than the last.

Zhao Xing was beginning to worry as the foolish bird hadn't returned; did something happen to it?

Last time, the Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird returned swiftly.

But this time, Zhao Xing waited a long time without seeing it fly back.

"In the Dream Palace, there is a guardian stronger than it; did something go wrong?"

Waiting is a kind of torment.

Zhao Xing stood at the door, looking out for a long time, finally—

"Shriek!"

A sound came through the clouds!

"It's back!"

Zhao Xing was overjoyed.

But then his brow furrowed as he unconsciously took two steps back.

Because the originally pure white mist suddenly turned pitch black as ink, countless lightning bolts flickered within it.

The terrifying divine might descended, making Zhao Xing feel uneasy even within the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.

"Such strong divine might, it seems it brought me something big this time!" Zhao Xing was both excited and anxious.

He heard the voice of the Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird, less powerful than before.

Continuous cries came from the clouds, seemingly trapped by some rule, or perhaps entangled with some presence.

Anxious and uneasy, Zhao Xing stared intently at the door.

Finally, after two hours,

the Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird, shimmering with rainbow light, flew towards the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.

It successfully escaped the clouds!

Whoosh!

The shimmering light grew weaker, but ultimately flew into the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.

Once it entered, all the anomalies outside vanished instantly, as if they had never appeared.

"Senior, senior, how are you?"

Zhao Xing rushed over; the Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird was still standing on the cabinet, as if this unremarkable cabinet was its old nest.

But he couldn't discern much, as the Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird continued to emit rainbow light.

Through the glow, he could only glimpse a faint bird-like illusion.

"I am fine."

The Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird's voice had become somewhat hoarse.

Fine?

Zhao Xing was skeptical.

The other said so, and he could not ask further.

"I found the two things you wanted."

Zhao Xing felt something was off in its voice but could not pinpoint it, suspecting it was injured.

But upon hearing about the treasures, Zhao Xing set the matter aside, looking on with anticipation.

"Whew~"

The Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird exhaled a seven-colored breath.

Then a golden book flew out, hovering in front of Zhao Xing.

"This is Da Li's [Yuan Yin Holy Scripture]"

"It's a Ninth-tier treasure!"

"However, it's not the era of Da Li anymore, how much effect it can exert is unknown."

"But given the turmoil in your current dynasty, in this area, it shouldn't be suppressed too heavily."

"It should be sufficient for your use."

[Yuan Yin Holy Scripture], a Ninth-tier treasure?

Zhao Xing was overjoyed, he cautiously asked: "Senior, how much power can I wield from this treasure?"

Ninth-tier treasures are usually First Grade to fully exert their power.

Of course, one-time consumables are an exception.

Consumables do not require any realm level for use, designed not to require the user to have any power.

Some powerful treasures can even be used by those unranked.

"I observe your Divine Soul is near Third Grade Primordial Soul Realm, just not yet fully consolidated. Considering your own capabilities, you can likely wield three to five-tenths of its power."

The Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird said calmly: "This item can also serve as a consumable; if you wish to exert its full power, you can tear off a page."

It's a dual-purpose treasure, both for regular use and as a consumable treasure.

Regular use would likely only exert three to five-tenths of its power.

The realm being lower than the treasure's grade typically results in such a condition.

Fortunately, it can be used as a consumable to exert full power.

The full power of a Ninth-tier treasure?

Even a high-grade priest encountering me would have no choice but to flee!

"Yuan Yin Holy Scripture, has four types of effects."

"First, sealing type, named [Yin Yang Boundary], can block a certain range of connections between the Yin Realm and the mortal world."

"Second, attack type, [God Slaying Talisman], can inflict great damage to Yin Gods, even eradicating them to a state of nothingness."

"Third, defense type, [Yuan Yin Protection], can create multiple splits to protect multiple entities from having their Life Souls eradicated."

"Fourth, divine invocation type, [Establishing Dao Body], can invoke the Establishing Dao Body left by legendary gods."

"However, the fourth effect is also limited by the current Fortune Dynasty System."

"Each dynasty has its own rules; invoking the Establishing Dao Body of the gods doesn't always work. Even if successful, a price must be paid, be it lifespan, Qi-Blood, Primordial Energy, or incense... It is important to note that inviting the Establishing Dao Body to appear, regardless of success or failure, the price is paid upfront."
